Welcome to OSU's Study Abroad/National Student Exchange Office!

"It's not about what I've seen and done, it's who the experience has allowed
me to become."

- Jessica, Japan

Our office coordinates a variety of programs, both international and domestic,
that help students to connect to the world. Services provided by the office include:

Individualized Study Abroad and National Student Exchange advising

Information on financial aid, grants and scholarships

A comprehensive resource library of study and travel materials

Liaison between international universities and study abroad students

Orientations for incoming and outgoing students and their families

Informational seminars and presentations to campus groups upon request

The links at the left will give you information about opportunities for study
abroad. Which program will you choose to begin your adventures?

Current OSU students interested in studying abroad should explore the
“Prospective Participants” section to learn about
the programs available to them for study at partner institutions in other countries,
and in the U.S. and U.S. territories.

International students interested in a semester or academic year abroad at OSU
should click on the links under “International Exchange
Students” for more information.

Current OSU students who have already applied to a program and/or who are currently
abroad should follow the links under "Current Participants".

As Lao Tsu, Chinese philosopher, said, “the journey of a thousand miles begins
with the first step.” We hope these resources will help you to take that first step.
Remember, you can always call or visit our office for additional help and information!

We look forward to working with you and wish you the best as you prepare for
your adventure abroad!
